INA Group continues with stable performance 

  • Net sales revenues: EUR 2.92 billion
  • CCS EBITDA: EUR 368 million
  • Capital investments: EUR 145 million
  • Modernization of the Rijeka Refinery: 98% of completion
  • Growth of the retail non-fuel margin: 16%

Zagreb, 30 October 2025 – INA Group performance in the first nine months of this year was stable, mostly due to natural gas price increase, higher Consumer Services and Retail sales volumes and consequently higher non-fuel margins. CCS EBITDA excl. special items amounted to EUR 368 million, which is a 7% increase compared to the same period last year.

Refining and Marketing incl. Consumer Services and Retail segment’s result was stronger driven by retail performance supported by positive market trends and tourist season. Consumer Services and Retail sales volumes increased by 3% compared to Q1-Q3 2024, with higher realization in the Croatian market (+28kt). Non-fuel margin continued to grow with a 16% increase. CCS EBITDA of the segment amounted to EUR 186 million, and Simplified Free Cash Flow EUR 114 million, an increase compared to the same period last year when investment spending was higher due to turnaround investment activities in Rijeka Refinery.

Exploration and Production EBITDA amounted to EUR 210 million, pressured by the natural decline of production and lower Brent price, partially offset by increased natural gas prices. Capital investments were focused to Croatia; 2nd exploration phase in Drava-03 is approved while trial production permit has been obtained on Jamarice 183 and the well was put in the production in July. On Ika A platform drilling has started in August. Compared to Q1-Q3 2024 capital investments in Egypt increased; on North Bahariya concession the development drilling campaign is ongoing, with 9 wells drilled and 6 well workovers performed.

Overall capital expenditure in Q1-Q3 2025 amounted to EUR 145 million, in line with lower investments in Refining and Marketing primarily attributed to the nearing completion of the Rijeka Refinery Upgrade Project, which has now reached 98%. Net debt was at the level of EUR 573 million with gearing ratio of 26%.

Zsuzsanna Ortutay, President of the INA Management Board, commented on the results:

“Despite the ongoing challenges of declining hydrocarbon prices and natural production decline, INA delivered stable results across all business segments in the first nine months of 2025.

Our retail performance remained strong, supported by a successful tourist season, growth in our non-fuel offer, and continued investments in network modernization and the Fresh Corner concept, which enhance customer experience and profitability.

In Refining and Marketing, product sales increased, and our logistics teams effectively supported heightened seasonal demand, ensuring supply stability. The Rijeka Refinery has been operating at full capacity throughout the year. The Rijeka Refinery Upgrade Project is now approaching its completion, a key step in the modernization of our refining system. In parallel, we have launched preparatory and exploratory works for a hydraulic barrier project under the refinery, an important investment in long-term environmental protection.

In Exploration and Production, we continued executing our production optimization program, while achieving successes in strengthening our domestic gas production portfolio. With the situation in Syria stabilizing, we also took the first steps toward the potential continuation of operations in the country with our delegation participating in an official visit to the Syrian Arab Republic.

Together, these achievements demonstrate resilience, operational excellence, and a clear strategic focus on sustainable growth and energy security.”
